Now there's a new way of touring Italy: Agricamper The company promotes sustainable rural tourism by motorhome, campervan & caravan: discover places you’d never have imagined staying in. Driven by a passion for travel as a source of freedom and discovery of the individuality of different places, the young French entrepreneur Pauline Nava has created the Agricamper platform, to offer subscribers an alternative to the well-trodden tourist routes. This is a travel experience that values the local countryside and its traditions, authenticity and sustainability. For an annual fee you can stay free for 24 hours right across the country in the fields, gardens and parking areas of over 170 private premises in Agricamper's network, such as farms, smallholdings, vineyards, rural B&Bs and other host venues. Through contact with the owners, you will learn about them, find out about the “gems” in the area, try local food specialities and – why not? – help the local economy by buying typical produce. “In France, I used to climb into my 1974 Volkswagen T2 Westfalia and go off to discover the country. Travelling in a minivan or camper gives you a real feeling of freedom,” says Pauline Nava, founder of Agricamper Italia. “When I moved to Italy six years ago with my family, I realised the country had no network to give people the experience of travelling in close contact with the history, traditions or countryside of each region. So, following the “Formule Invitation” of France Passion, which has been successful in France for 27 years, I decided to start Agricamper to offer camper owners in this country and abroad a network guaranteed to welcome them with originality, local flavours and sustainability.” Local producers the length of Italy have supported the plan, as well as many associations, federations, communities and small businesses, both for its tourist development potential and to protect and give value to the “made in Italy” label. Supporters of Agricamper include La Federazione Italiana Vignaioli (Italian Federation of Vinegrowers, www.fivi.it), which promotes the quality and authenticity of Italian wines; the Associazione UNIONBIRRAI – small independent brewers (www.unionbirrai.it), a collective label guaranteeing the independence and artisan manufacture of its member brands; Yescapa (www.yescapa.com), a European platform for private camper shares; the largest community of camper owners in Italy and Europe, Camperisti italiani (www.camperisti-italiani.com) and ACTItalia (www.actitalia.it), the national federation of Italian camper owners, established in 1942.
